If you’re someone who’s busy baking holiday treats or making candy let me say right up front that this Sugar-Free Raspberry Yogurt Pie is probably not going to excite you. This recipe is for those people who write to me begging for a Phase One Dessert option, or anyone who needs to severely limit their intake of sugar at this time of year. And it’s also great for people like me who aren’t really that interested in baking but wants something sweet once in a while.

The recipe was sent to me by a reader named Kate, who shared it on Facebook. Kate used lemon sugar-free jello, which sounded great but I never did find it in any of the stores by me. Instead I used raspberry flavor, which I thought made it look slightly Christmassy, if you use your imagination. I thought the yogurt pie was pretty good, but I liked it best layered into a parfait with whipped topping (which admittedly probably makes it less Phase One Friendly and maybe a bit higher in carbs.)

How to Make Two-Ingredient Sugar-Free Raspberry Yogurt Pie:

(Scroll down for printable recipe.)

You need a large package of sugar-free jello (or 2 small packages) and a 32 oz. package of plain non-fat yogurt to make this. I used my favorite Greek yogurt, but Kate didn’t specify Greek yogurt so I’m guessing regular non-fat plain yogurt will work just fine.

Mixing the jello powder with the plain yogurt is the hardest part of the recipe! (I’m using a huge 8 cup measuring cup here.)

Microwave the jello-yogurt mixture on high for 1 1/2 minutes, then give it a good stir and microwave for another 1 minute.

Pour the heated yogurt mixture into a glass pie plate that you’ve sprayed with nonstick spray and put it in the refrigerator for 3 hours or until firmly set.

After 3 hours, take the pie out, cut into slices, and serve (with a dollop of whipped cream or whipped topping if you’d like.)

And as I said, layered into a glass with whipped topping to make a parfait was my favorite way to eat this. (The South Beach Diet Supercharged lists “whipped topping, light or fat free as being limited to 2 tablespoons for Phase One, so if you’re eating this for Phase One, I’d stick with the pie. Other low-carb diets would prefer actual whipped cream if you’re making this option.)

Two-Ingredient Sugar-Free Raspberry Yogurt Pie

This Two-Ingredient Sugar-Free Raspberry Yogurt Pie is ridiculously easy to make and it's low-carb and South Beach Diet Phase One!

Ingredients

32 oz. plain yogurt, see notes

1 large package sugar-free raspberry Jello (see notes)

Instructions

In a large microwave-proof bowl, mix together the yogurt and sugar-free jello powder until it’s all combined.

Microwave on high for 1 1/2 minutes.

Remove the bowl from the microwave and stir several times, then microwave 1 minute more.

Pour the heated yogurt mixture into a 9 inch glass or ceramic pie plate that’s been sprayed with non-stick spray.

Refrigerate three hours or until set, then cut and serve, with a dollop of Sugar-Free Whipped topping or whipped cream if desired. You can also layer it into a parfait glass as shown in the photo above.

This will keep for a few days in the refrigerator.

Notes

I used nonfat Fage Total Greek Yogurt when I was making this for the South Beach Diet, but other low-carb diets would probably prefer full-fat yogurt. Use a large 8-serving size sugar free Jello or two 4-serving size packages. Use any flavor of jello you prefer.

Nutritional information does not include whipped topping or whipped cream.

Low-Carb Diet / Low-Glycemic Diet / South Beach Diet Suggestions:
Using sugar-free jello and fat-free Greek yogurt would make this Two-Ingredient Sugar-Free Raspberry Yogurt Pie makes it acceptable for all phases of the South Beach Diet, which allows up to 2 cups of nonfat Greek yogurt per day. (The South Beach Diet Supercharged lists “whipped topping, light or fat free” as being limited to 2 tablespoons per day for Phase One, so if you are eating this for Phase One, use portion control on the whipped topping.) If you’re making this for a low-carb diet you will probably want to use full-fat yogurt and real whipped cream.

i'm making this for our xmas dessert and i did a small batch to taste first and OMG! love love love it!! also to make it more christmassy i added some extra food colouring to make it more red and some green colour to the whipped topping 🙂

Hi Kalyn, just wanted to let you know I tried the recipe and its delicious! I did change it up a little though, and used about a cup of skim ricotta and then three cups of low-fat yogurt to give it a slightly thicker consistency. I also decided to give it a crust, and I made a low-carb almond one which was recommended for things like cheesecakes and the like. All in all very yummy! ^_^

It's hard to find almost anything "desserty" for phase l so I'm sure a lot of people will appreciate you sharing Kate's recipe! I love the ricotta desserts, and the bonus is so does my hubby. Happy holidays Kalyn.

I am not going to publish comments critical of the artificial sweeteners used in sugar-free Jello. Obviously, if you're concerned about such products don't use them. However, I feel everyone has the right to make their own decisions about what they eat.

My handicapped daughter is coming for Christmas. She is also diabetic. She will think this is pretty indeed. I think I will make a small one with 1/2 the recipe. Does it hold for a day or two leftover in the fridge do you think?
